Industrial door motor replacement in Bordon

In short

Door stalling, grinding or creeping down at your Bordon site? It may need a new motor, or the motor may be suffering from a fault elsewhere. We diagnose which it is before recommending anything.

Town: Bordon
Postcode district: GU35
Area: Hampshire
Guide price: £845 – £2,395

What our engineers check and fix

Written records. You receive written details of the new drive and test results for your records.
Panel upgrades. Older panels can be replaced at the same time for better reliability and safety.
Obsolete motors. Equivalent drives with adapters where the original model is no longer made.
Force testing. Where it applies, we measure closing forces to confirm the door is safe after the change.
Re-commissioning. Limits set, cycles tested and safety devices checked before handover.

What this work can involve

Replacing a motor with a slipping brake on a heavy shutter that creeps down from a part-open position.
Re-commissioning a sectional door once a new motor is fitted, including new limit settings and closing force tests.
Upgrading an old relay control panel to a modern unit with monitored safety edge inputs during a motor change.

Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Bordon?

In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.

Keeping your site running during the work

Testing and repairs can mean closing an opening, so we agree timing and access with you before the visit, including early, late or weekend slots where the site needs them.

Industrial door motor replacement in Bordon: your questions

How soon can a door motor in Bordon be replaced?

Many common motors can be sourced quickly, and fitting usually takes a few hours once the drive is on site. Specialist or obsolete motors may need ordering; we tell you the lead time with the quote.

Will our door in Bordon be tested after the motor is changed?

Yes. We set limits, test the brake and manual override, check safety devices and measure closing forces where required, then give you a written record of the work and test results.

Is the motor really the problem with our door in Bordon?

Not always. Broken springs, damaged guides, failed panels, safety device faults and supply problems can all look like a failed motor. We diagnose first so you do not pay for a motor that will not fix the fault.
